A Sasquatch's Double Dozen

Twenty four things going on out there, starting with some stuff across the Pond:

From Voice Of Europe, a German city pays €6,800 per month for just one family of refugees.  (If you read German, read the story at the German Express.)

From Birmingham Live, police in Birmingham, England have blockaded a street due to reports of a man running around with machetes.

From the Express (the British Express, that is), Dutch fisherman are demanding access to British waters.

From Breitbart London, Turkey is accused of allowing migrants to "surge" into Greece, as Europol tracks about 65,000 people smugglers.  (Have I said that these migrants are being trafficked?  Quite often, I'll admit.)

From Ekathimerini, a sharp increase in migrants reaching Greek islands is feared to be the doing of Turkish President Erdoğan.

From the Financial Times, a German court has rejected a request from Spain to extradite Catalan politician Carles Puigdemont.

From The Local ES, a Spanish judge has charged Puigdemont with sedition.

From The Local IT, Italian politicians "dig in" their "heels" after meeting with President Sergio Mattarella.

From The Local CH, Switzerland may soon deport about 3,200 Eritreans.

From The Local FR, French railway services resume, for a few days.

From Flanders News, Facebook may have shared the data of up to 60,000 Belgians with Cambridge Analytica.

From the NL Times, Facebook may have shared the data of up to 90,000 Dutch with Cambridge Analytica.

From Euronews, the leader of Poland's majority PiS party says that there's an "80 percent chance" that Poland could soon resolve its dispute with the E.U.

From Euractiv, Russia loses its bid to launch a joint investigation of the recent spy poisoning.

From News(dot)com(dot)au, three children watched as their ISIS-sympathizing father killed and mutilated their mother.  (via the Daily Mail)

From France24, accused rapist Tariq Ramadan allegedly paid a woman for her silence.

From Berita Daily, cattle producers in the Malaysian state of Kelantan are encouraged to try a new method for improving the quality of their beef.

From The Federalist, some people don't like the appointment of John Bolton as National Security Advisor.

From FrontpageMag, the mainstream media doesn't have much to say about YouTube shooter.

From National Review, how the trial of the Orlando nightclub shooter's widow debunked the leftwing idea that Christians were to blame for the shooting.  (I would add that this blaming of Christians is itself viciously hateful and bigoted.)

From Townhall, the Parkland and YouTube shooters had just about nothing in common, except for one notable thing.
